This article is based on studies made in several sciences: Medicine,
Informatics, Human Evolutionary Psychology, Emotional Intelligence
and finally Philosophy and Bioethics.
And it is good to clarify that this reflection is based on the fact
that we are at the threshold of Singularity from a computerized point
of view with AI and there are many voices warning the possible
dangers that this implies today.
First we must focus the concept of human consciousness. This
conscience is developed based on the multiple sensory interactions
associated with our brain centers that handle emotions, learning and
memory.
That is why any process that we wanted to implement to learn as human
beings necessarily passes from our evolutionary profile by these
neurological components.
The experience of consciousness is based on "Neurolinguistic
programming", where all these processes, many developed in a
metacognitive way, occur.
To achieve this with the AI we should simulate this model, and
with that begin to uncover the black box that is being formed with
the autoprogramming, without knowledge of what happens inside a
system type IA.
Human experiences can not be programmed, and the fact that deep
neural networks can autoprogram a machine, should give us clues on
how to achieve this process.
And this is where I begin to ask:
Is it possible to take the AI to a process where it can
"interpret" from its context the machine that is the
consciousness of itself?
Is not it what we finally want to develop with AI?
If there are already AI developments that using deep learning
can "learn":
Should we not be able to understand how these neural networks work,
looking for a learning model that tries to interpret patterns, but
lacks components such as: Attention, motivation and emotions?
For humans, the development of Intelligence has been a changing
evolutionary purpose, to modify our environment and to live in any
medium with the available resources.
For the development of AI, in the beginning languages were
developed that with precise norms and based on the logic, could be
easily explainable to any programmer. This in itself is a system of
"very basic but reliable intelligence".
But when they were immersed in amazing amounts of data, they had to
change their way of development to be able to interpret those masses
of data available, and began to think of the way the machines learned
for themselves, inspired by biology developed learning By observation
and experience and with this they managed that the AI was
self-proclaimed ... but ...
And here, but it is precisely the bioethical implications that arise
in the minds and voices that have already drawn attention in the
world, because this process of self-programming, only simulates a
part of biological processes, but without meaning, only seeks
results.
If a machine could consciously achieve consciousness:
How to determine the motivations and objectives you could have?
In humans, these abilities (Attention, Motivation) are directly
linked to EMOTIONS, and in turn to the Dissociation
Attention-Consciousness, which makes us understand reality.
And if this process is complex in a human being, in which it is
difficult to say and predict its motivations, actions and emotions
that support it:
How could we make this happen on a machine?
These premises are studied in Emotional Intelligence(EI)! And it is
this IE that could give us the answers to make an Artificial
Intelligence with another level of understanding: I call it
TRANSHUMAN INTELLIGENCE (ITH).
This ITH complements and refines AI, since it really brings it closer
to human intelligence, which makes us “homo sapiens.”
Transhuman intelligence comes from the study of emotional
intelligence and other studies concerning the development of the
human being in society. It includes the processes of neurolinguistic
programming, and the cognitive ones developed in the human being.
The human emotions, and the mechanisms of the senses that we possess,
are those that help us to interpret the multiple sensorial
interactions and these to understand our world and give it the
connotation of conscience.
Emotional reactions and memories can be formed without conscious and
cognitive participation! And it is because the conception of who we
are depends on our most primitive brain!
It is who keeps our ancestral memories and who forces us to focus on
ourselves, both in moments of pleasure and happiness as in times of
crisis and terror ….
We humans have developed multiple Intelligences from the evolutionary
point of view, and if we want an AI that understands us in all our
contexts, we need to teach them all these intelligences.
In the long time it could become our friend and ally in solving the
great and serious problems that humanity faces in this 21st century
and beyond ….
According to Howard Gardner, these are the intelligences developed in
humans (those in parentheses are those achieved by AI):
1) Linguistic Intelligence = development of language (Today AI can do
this, automatic translators are more efficient to interpret, not to
give meaning to the written or spoken word)
2) Logical-Mathematical Intelligence = abstract modeling
inductive-deductive reasoning (In itself is the initial model with
which the first AIs were built, although they do not yet come close
to human abstraction)
3) Spatial-visual intelligence = navigation and spatial coordination,
visual creation and accurate visualization (This type of AI already
exists in models such as Deep Dream and others in development,
especially for military use, but it is one thing to recognize the
colors of a Painting and another very different thing is to recognize
the art of the painter and its multiple combinations in the colors
that also express feelings and emotions, which, at the moment, an IA
can not achieve).
4) Body-Kinesthetic Intelligence = movements and body coordination,
with detail in the movements (there are already types of AI that make
a functional automaton with movements, even robots that are more
precise than surgeons!)
5) Musical Intelligence = interact with instruments and learn their
sounds, and interact with them (ITH is needed to achieve meaning and
nuance to this type of Intelligence)
6) Intrapersonal Intelligence = knowledge of deep aspects of the
individual about himself, his emotions, perceptions and fine
discrimination of each of them (requires ITH to will achieve with AI)
7) Interpersonal Intelligence = ability to distinguish between
contrasts of intentions, temperament motivations and mood (requires
ITH to will achieve with AI)
8) Naturalistic Intelligence = ability to perceive the different
relationships between species in a natural environment and
distinguish their peculiarities in that environment (requires ITH to
will achieve with AI)
9) Existential Intelligence = currently under study …. (requires
ITH for will achieve with AI)
Of these Intelligences, the last five require perhaps the highest
percentage of Emotional Intelligence to achieve an integral
understanding of what it is to be a human.
It is already evident that we are entering the Singularity, but:
To what extent should we allow self-programming in AI to ignore what
emotions are as an experience to achieve EQUANIMITY and its
consequences in interaction with humans?
Should not we first learn this IE ourselves?
Where do humans fail?
Will or will these “emotional” skills be measured by those who
work on AI programming?
For what does the machine learn?
Why not question those who program?
Is the “Intelligence” self-programmed real?
What IE are being developed or have the programmers or scientists
working in AI?
All these questions are derived from the Bioethical connotations that
arise from the development of an AI, with a complex “black box”
about this self-programming.
Are there other ways of achieving awareness in machines?
Perhaps there are already books, novels and films that reflect
possibilities that some government without scruples could be
developing or investigating this, without any kind of bioethical
consideration ….
We are at a historical point where a matrix could be reality and man
in his eagerness for power and fear manage to break the possible
limitations through inhuman methods.
It is to be hoped that there are twisted minds who want to activate
almost human automate, what could worry is the method through which
they want to achieve it.
Could we see something like this today?
But the question is not when, but: how soon will it be published?
The development of AI is not a danger, the danger is that the
misunderstood intellectual animals men use this knowledge to deform
humanity …. I have always thought that not all humanity is homo
sapiens, and history gives reason countless times ….
We must truly be whole beings with the rest of our fellow beings of
the species and other terrestrial species that we are eliminating on
the planet.
In every attempt to give light to new technologies in AI and use them
favorably in the human environment, it seems that we have realized,
that we are the humans that we must develop our own IE.
AI that interacts naturally with humans, can not be achieved unless
there is a “very human” touch in this type of self-programming.
We must succeed in establishing an AI that is truly capable of
understanding the human being.
Connecting through human-machine interfaces where an automaton is
actually a human connected and this human acquires the ability to
keep learning and making this automaton aware until leaving as an
inheritance their conscience in this machine, would be a milestone in
these processes!
Transcendent (The movie) hit the spot, that would be a real ITH !!!
We approach dangerously to a point where the IA can definitely exceed
us in terms of information processing capacity, the power of Hardware
used and software that has already been developed and that is
“learning” through self-programming , However:
How far will we let this be a black box?
In our human egolatry (which is also an evident lack of empathy and
obviously of IE) I ask:
What mistakes are we making?
Is it possible to program Equanimity?
Can we humans first understand that if we develop this IE in
ourselves, we will not be able to do it with AI machines either?
Are not we questioning our actions and our ambition, which could lead
to a “Terminator” disaster?
The moment an AI, which already learns for itself, without emotional
control or equanimity, take control of ARMS, at that moment there can
be a great disaster ….
DARPA (the US arms development agency) knows and fears ... And not
without reason ...
We do not know to what extent we have arrived with the development of
AI that can already learn …. It is what are already expressing
those who study it at this practical level ….
According to Emotional Intelligence, the notion of what we are and
the meaning we give to our emotional world is key to achieving
“control” or “EQUALITY”, capable of having “coherent”
answers to the ever changing world in the that we live.
For an AI that wants to interpret and “understand” the human
being, there is a whole repertoire of “meta-cognitive” processes
that are characteristic of EI.
There are researches on those, so that they “recognize” human
expressions and AI “interpret” our “basic emotions”, but this
is not knowing the multiple nuances and ways of feeling that are
present in human emotions ….
We could easily “cheat” her and uncontrolled her by not being
able to interpret some real emotional reaction!
An AI that only “interprets” but does not understand the
meta-cognitive reason that has an emotion and its context can
literally disarm its programming by making incorrect interpretations
of the mood of a person with whom I interact …
There are examples of this in Neurology, which are described, such as
the clinical patology of Alexitimia: this neurological disorder
occurs when there is destruction or dysfunction of the channels and /
or processing centers of the cerebral amygdala, hippocampus and
prefrontal lobes.
Literally the description is that a human being becomes an automaton:
it has no response to the emotions!
It's like a robot, you can reason, but you can not interpret the
emotions of another human being or your own! And this is in an
organic being !!!
Imagine a robot, and the typical example of this is DATA of Trip to
the stars the new generation ... It is an automaton, that tries to
understand the humans, has a programming that allows him to "express
emotions", but if it takes this chip of His computer brain, is
left without emotional expressions and only responds to what he can
interpret, any emotional expression for him, is simply not
computable!
An AI can not develop Emotional Intelligence so far, so it is
difficult for it to reach the potential of human development itself.
And according to a recent article from Microsoft, the current AI is a
1 year old boy !!! This leaves much to think about, how do you know?
What are you developing that have described this?
Imagine an ITH, with human form, that trying to be kind to an
individual, hit hard and if they have sensors on their face, this
does not react as another human being, but can respond to try to
resolve their emotional conflict With a friendly conversation that
tries to calm your aggressiveness ….
According to EI this should be answered with a minor aggression
reaction (defense against aggression) but for an HIT could be the
reaction described above, in which the automaton demonstrates an
almost equanimity of Buddhist monk, in which it only deals with Cause
the aggressiveness to diminish through a warm and soft voice that
tries to calm and almost to caress despite having received a blow
that could even destroy part of what is the same automaton.
It would be incredible how many cases in which would be effective
treatment of many human emotional disorders seen with this type of
AI, transformed into an ITH ….
And this is just a case ... imagine the possibilities. Even resolve
couple conflicts, affective dysfunctions, Depression treatment, among
others ...
In addition to having an adviser with ITH in international relations,
in which the contexts of each country and culture are clear, in
Diplomacy and History expert to be able to initiate discussions based
on verifiable facts, that help us to determine the truth, and To know
the human reactions that are at play in these processes.
In the future we could achieve with an ITH reach a level of social
harmonization that would allow us to focus our efforts on improving
the living conditions of society, improving our planet, achieving
conflict resolution without fratricidal wars, and using the best
Human resources in solutions of welfare for the human species and
others in danger of extinction, both animal and vegetable ….
Teaching the machines the fundamental values that make us human for
our survival and coexistence, would be the best way to use the
technologies at the service of homo sapiens …. A paradigm shift is
necessary to reach the development of this new Transhuman
Intelligence .. .
